Bidding a Fond Adieu

Andy Warhol image

It is always sad to here of a death and when it is someone we all know and love it seems even more poignant. Today we farewell a lady who appeared to have it all. Elizabeth Taylor was famous, abundantly wealthy, loved by many and fabulously gorgeous - a true style icon.

She was the epitomy of what so many people strive for in this world.

However she also suffered greatly. She had a number of broken marriages and love affairs, and she had terrible times with ill health. She struggled with these issues and had the added stress of doing so in the public limelight.

What a blessing that she was surrounded by her children when she finally bid adieu to this world. Today I remember fondly a lady who appeared to me to have so much grace and poise - Elizabeth Taylor, I honour you.
